Ya know, you lay out the game for awhile and your powers get weak... hmm... something, something, darkside...
Ok, so on CB Tricks we all know there's directions to do this EKL mosfet swap, and I'm using 520's and having to build my own companion parts, just to get that out the way. So I've followed those directions to a T, a very sharp T, and I can't get this radio to key a carrier. Is there something they've left out? I'm attempting to do a dual mosfet into a Galaxy 44v, yeah I know... WHY? Cause I have plenty of time to waste, that's why.
So, take a look at the pic below. That green chip looking thing is a 1000pf capacitor, it's supposed to be 1500 but that was all I had at the moment. If I install that 480k from L41 to C175, I get nothing. If I take that off, I get no carrier but I get some faint swing. I know I need to change that cap to the correct value and I will but do you see anything wrong?
